The baby mullet is in full effect, y’all. It makes me want to just kiss her sweet cheeks, because bless her heart, you know?

In other news, see her boo boo? I know, you might have to squint. She fell down in the driveway last weekend and smacked her head pretty hard. But the knee has turned out to need the most care. This is how it goes:MB wakes up from her nap.Me: HI, BUBBA!! Did you have a good nap?MB: Knee! Kneeeeeeeee!Me: Huh? [I’m slow–even though this has been going on for days]MB: Kneeeeeee! Kneeeeeeeeeee-uh!Me: Does your knee need a kiss?MB: Yeah!Me: Ok [kiss!]. Does that feel better?MB: Yeah.

But apparently not for long, because that knee needs lots of kisses. At dinner the knee needed a kiss, but I couldn’t really get a good look under the high chair and kissed the wrong knee.Me: Does that feel better?MB: Yeah.

I’ve always known that I married an amazing man, but I try not to talk about it a lot. I figure: why brag?

But then the Jacksonville Business Journal had to go and name Lee one of Jacksonville’s most influential 40 under 40, and now the secret’s out.

So now you know, if you weren’t already suspicious: my husband is awesome. I’m so proud of him! Kind of makes all the cancelled vacations worth it. We can always take our honeymoon on our 10th anniversary, right?

[I’ll preface this by saying that MB’s new favorite thing to say is I know. This has replaced What’s that? as the most frequently uttered phrase in our household. I guess she figures she’s asked What’s that? 14,000 times a day since October, so she finally knows it all.]

So, I’m cooking dinner for MB last night [pesto ravioli again, she can’t get enough]. She’s twirling around the kitchen playing with a purple beach pail that has still not made it to a permanent home in the toy bin.

I turn around from the stove, and the bucket is upside down on her head.

Me: MB, you know you have a bucket on your head?MB: [bucket still on head] I know.Me: Mmmkay, as long as you know.
